/ Senator Pottieraw intioduccd a counla of
resolutions today which may cause some om-
bariussment to some individuals in the

Indlins. Ho first called upon the secretary
of the Interior to know what disposition had
been made of the money appioprintod by the
last congress to pay scouts aiidboldioisof the
Sissoton , Wahpcton and Sioux nations , and
then whether attorney fees or other allow
ances hail been made to any ono fnr alleged
services to the Indians as ngonts in Iho col
lection of tholr money or otherwise.
It is final ono person aimed at is General
John U. Snnborn of St. Paul , who , it is
nllepocl , has socnrc'l a fco for acting for the
Indians. But as a losult of this inquiry it
may dot'olop that some persons bavo been
cotting n slice of the $11)0.000 ) appropriated
to pay the filondlv Sioux forsacrilices made
in the recent Sioux war , and that they had
no right to such money.

Thomas county is the banner county of the

It is a notlcoablo fact that the farm mort

tboso counties In tbo western and north-
wstorn pirti of the state. Miny of the
counties that bad to bo relieved by slalo ap
propriation two years ago moke a gratifying
showing.
It U north whllo to state in this connec
tion that a very lurpo porcentutro of the farm
mortgages tiled wore given for pirt of the
purchase money. Thcro is no wuv of airiv-
inp ut the exact proportion , but. a largo num

quito apparent that Nebraska fanners are
not plunging deeper into debt ovoiy jear ,
but on the contrary are raoro than holding
their own.
To quote a prominent state odlclal. "Ihoro
is nothing in the tiguroi to justify the state
ment so frequently made bv the Mrs , Leases

becoming moro and moro involved ovury yoar.
Another favorable crop year will reverse the

to ttaom since the conviction of Shad-
duck , which if presented ut the trial would
have soourad his acquittal. Affidavits of
reputable citizens furnished ample oridonco
that the testimony of the complaining wit
ness was unreliable and unworthy of
credence. Uvldonco was also presented
demonstrating that It would have b aa im-
potilblo for the odonso to have boon com
mitted in the manner described by the com
plaining wltnou in her testimony. Letters
from loading citizens and oftlclals of
Thavor county testify to the gooa character
of Sbudduck una the ovll character of the
complainant. 1'otltlons signed by nearly
every citizen of the county testified in a
similar manuor to tbo good character of
Shadduok und prayed for hli pardon. Now ,

everything which ho had tostllled to upon

ho could not stato. Judge Uoall then
prefaced his Judgment with a few remarks ,
after which Mr. Paul was sentenced to three

parently much dejected. The attorneys of
the prisoner announced tholr intention to
contest the matter iu the supreme court.

twodavs' deliberation the jury returned n
verdict llnding him guilty of ombo/zlmc S750
and recommended turn to the moroy of tbo

It's very hard. Charlie will never llvo
through it. They may take the case to the
